摘要:
The proliferation of cardiomyocytes is induced by expressing cyclin and CDK in the cardiomyocytes, and by suppressing the function or action of a Cip/Kip family protein or inhibiting the production of a Cip/Kip family protein. Among the Cip/Kip family proteins, it is preferable to suppress the function of p27KiP1 or inhibiting the production thereof. As a recombinant vector to be used therefor, there is provided a vector comprising: (1) a cyclin gene; (2) a cyclin-dependent kinase gene; and (3) one or a plurality selected from the group consisting of a gene encoding a factor that inhibits the function or action of a Cip/Kip family protein and a nucleic acid sequence that inhibits the production of Cip/Kip family protein.
摘要:
Terminal differentiated cells are proliferated by introducing a cyclin and a cyclin dependent kinase into the nucleus of terminal differentiated cells, and then cultivating or holding the cells. A method for proliferating terminal differentiated cells comprising adding a nucleotide sequence coding for a nuclear localization signal to at least one of a cyclin gene and a cyclin dependent kinase gene, and introducing each of the genes to terminal differentiated cells in vitro, and then cultivating the cells, or introducing each of the genes directly to terminal differentiated cells in vivo is provided. The cyclin is a cyclin that can activate CDK4 or CDK6, and the cyclin dependent kinase is a cyclin dependent kinase that is activated by D-type cyclin. The invention also provides a recombinant vector used for such a method or a pharmaceutical composition comprising the vector.
